A couple of years ago I went through the game and corrected dozens of mistakes, errors, missing files. Since then I've played 3 full games and am reasonably confident that it's 99.5 ? per cent playable (unless you play every civ to the end you can't guarantee 100 per cent). It's quite a good mod - well thought out though some things probably need a tweak, and since it's release there's been lots of better unit graphics released that could be added. I did change the interface files and I turned off the plague (in my first game the plague came about turn 70 ?, spread to every city on the planet, and never ended - not fun !). I've not fixed some of the other graphical issues - backgrounds etc, but I thought I'd make the files available for playing/modding if anyone's interested https://drive.google.com/file/d/1OefZcXWRB2LOdCDw44-oV5J5f_ByNBZs/view?usp=sharing .
ooooooh.. nice work sir! I'll have to check this out. Want me to upload it here to CFC @Rathvilly ?
Done! I've tested it with my disc install of Civ3 (steam users will be fine too as there's no label files) and it worked! Wow.. this is nice work! Looks good (noticed you're using the Heroes of Might & Magic 3 GUI design imported by Tom2050 haha). And by the sound of your post it'll play much better too so that's great news!
I've repacked with 7zip (down to 409MB from your 590MB zip file) and uploaded a copy of the mod to CivFanatics servers to preserve your work. EDIT: As part of the dead mod link rescue/replacement project I'm working on with Quintilius he & I have edited the original thread post's download link for this mod to link to here instead of the long gone SoC one that was taking people to a dodgy page.

NOTE: If anyone still wants imperator1961's original version instead of this enhanced one go HERE.
Noice!

Thanks for keeping this mod alive!
thank you for great scenarioDone! FYI I have recompressed the files using 7zip and got it down to 409MB which is quite a bit smaller than your 590mg regular zip file. Also a stuck a bare bones general info text file in there with a link to your post here.
Have updated it to the CivFinatics servers here:

What do you use to open it with?
https://www.7-zip.org/
Using anything else is living in the dark ages these days as 7zip compresses way better than all the others (yes including rar), and its free!
